President Bush has commuted former Vice Presidential aide, Lewis Libby, sentence from 2 1/2 years in prison to 2 years probation and the $250,000 fine. And, as expected, Democrats are hemming and hawing about it.

As Independence Day nears, we are reminded that one of the principles our forefathers fought for was equal justice under the law. This commutation completely tramples on that principle-Sen. Charles Schumer

But, I mean, come on, if the President of the United States can get away with lying under oath, can't the aide to the Vice President get off for lying to authorities and obstructing justice? Because that's what he was convicted of. Reading the statement by Sen. Schumer and you'd think he was convicted of leaking the name of a CIA operative or something.Story

I don't seem to recall Democrats getting too upset with President Clinton actually pardoned 140 people on his last day in office. One of them being his own brother.
